Tristan & Mitch the night we started Wickid Pissa!
Here is some out-takes from Cell Phones & Action Figures. Josh & Pat goofing around in front of the camera in true J&P style!
Ten years ago we set out to do something very hard: make our first movie on film. This was back in the days when DV cameras were in their larva stage. So we did what everyone in the independent film movement of the 90's did. We tried to shoot a low-buget feature on 16mm. Here are some clips from our first film "I-Scream" Inspired by Clerks.
We've been making movies since we were kids. Here's a walk though the demented childhood of Josh & Pat. All of these skits were from the original
J & P shows recorded in the late 80's and early 90's
Mitch wrote a book called "Pissing on the Pulse of the Planet." A comedic manifesto that attacks pop culture and sex with a sharp wit. Here is a 16mm commercial we shot for the book, order your copy right here!
151 Tristan & Patrick's first band based in Austin TX.
Here is a short we did called "The Street Elite" It's about street people being used to pull off art and diamond heists.
In 1995 we pulled an all nighter and shot this post WW3 movie on VHS & Super 8. This one is called "The Rest Is Silence."
